GNU cpio
copies files into or out of a cpio
or
tar
archive, The archive can be another file on the disk, a
magnetic tape, or a pipe.
GNU cpio
supports the following archive formats: binary, old
ASCII, new ASCII, crc, HPUX binary, HPUX old ASCII, old tar, and
POSIX.1 tar. The tar format is provided for compatibility with the
tar
program. By default, cpio
creates binary
format archives, for compatibility with older cpio
programs.
When extracting from archives, cpio
automatically recognizes
which kind of archive it is reading and can read archives created on
machines with a different byte-order.
